You can actually do it in TWO words: “Explosive Diarrhea” NOBODY wants you to come to work when there’s a possibility of getting in your way to the bathroom and possibly getting hit with “friendly” fire as you pass by.
See, in our house, with my wife’s gut stuff, if she suspects that her intestines are going to go weird, we make SURE that she goes to work that day. Her office has industrial office toilets which are more powerful than residential toilets, and if she manages to clog it anyway, it’s someone else’s job to fix it other than me.
It helps that she works for several different managers doing cross-team sorts of things, and on multiple unrelated projects (she has a unique set of skills and historical knowledge of how various pieces of software the company has written works under the hood, so lots of people need her), so if she’s away from her desk for a couple hours, everybody assumes she’s just working in some other building for some other group.
“Industrial Office Toilets”?
Because we all know of all the bullshit that comes into existence in offices all around the world and that needs to be flushed eventually?
“And in global news today, a new epidemic has brought the working world to a grinding halt, as employees everywhere find themselves glued to their toilets indefinitely in light of an unidentified epidemic. Economists are still analyzing the effects of a long-term case of “Workday Poopitis”. Film at 11:00.”
I just realized you forgot to do a Halloween-themed cartoon this year. (Or did you, and I just didn’t notice it because it was earlier in the month?)
October 29. “Trick or Treat of Thievery”
Ha! Story of my current life.
“You’re late.”
“Crohn’s stuff.”
“Good enough for me.”
It works all the better when your poops during the workday drive others away from the restroom.

Touché
I like it that the killer bot has a non-bug antenna.
Panel 2 is genius comedic timing.
Thanks!

The expression in the second panel is priceless!
Thanks! I was happy how that one turned out too.
“Walking fecal factory”… That is the greatest descriptive name of all time.
For a better sound effect for panel 3, have a nearly empty mustard bottle handy and squeeze it as hard as you can.
I found this out by accident once. I got it done in two words though, “food poisoning.” My boss couldn’t get me off the phone fast enough!

I seriously laughed so hard I cried. Just genius.
